I am only changing the format of the file so it loads,  any differences between QUCS & QucsStudio are beyond the scope of the converter.

I have  looked at the rotated components but can not figure out how it works.

It only converts the latest version QUCS files as that is all I have to test.

If need to convert an earlier version just edit the first line in the file or load into later QUCS & re-save.

Not may people have VB6 , but I will put the code online when it has been fully tested.

As I mentioned JavaScript would be better as it will run in a web browser & is easily modified.

Sorry, I must have dropped the wrong link   the zip  is not latest version now.

This should be the correct link for V0.11

*.dpl  files now included in the files list for convert.

MS SE definition now exclude my file (until I make some significant change)

MSE  AutoBots gives a false positive  on the new version, sent submission waiting reply. (I knew I should have JavaScripted it!)

Thanks for testing,   there are some things that we need to correct & tidy up after load, it took just a few minutes to get my A3 PV sim working after load. There is not a comprehensive file format document so I have to analyze differences between saved sheets of the 2 programs.

The app is not intended to be a full converter, but just a “get it to load” .

If anyone identifies a specific format difference I should be able to implement it in format converter.

Yes there some QUCS equation convention that QS V3.2.2 does not use, but its easy to correct them.  (eg… PlotVs, V1.V, )

I did a test with the document border.

Looking at the file the line showFrame=1, If I change it to showFrame=5 & reopen it is restored to correct sheet size.  For some reason it is not being saved

This is a big one for me !,  I don’t understand why this would be removed as being able to choose where data files are located is fundamental to using a good app,  & QucsStudio is a very good app.

I don’t store my data files on the root C: drive,  D: is for all my data, makes backup a breeze , if I get a drive full the OS is still happy. I don’t have data cluttering up my boot partition image backups.

Please reinstate the data home folder select option, it will be immensely appreciated.

 

Regards

Ok, I have made a draft QUCS –> QucsStudioV3.3.2 scg .sch file converter.

[Sorry, I should have done it in JavaScript but I already had a VB app that was similar.]

Have tested on my files, but still need to do some tweaking to get  sch to sim. The acid test it it loads without error.

Just put the app in a folder with sch files for convert, out files will have append’d filename.

What I had to tweak after loading sch in QS: Some components are 90deg. rotated, text newline is not, some  variables need  correction – (in sweep,  Diode EGTA value set to “Normal”,  Formula differences etc…) easy enough to find with sim error report.

Any probs just feedback

Here is the link for now…

I would not mind writing a little converter, but I don’t have enough detail of the file formats between the 2 programs at this time.

I am assuming the QUCS format had some problems for QUCS Studio to  need a new structure ?

I have about 11 QUCS projects & 18 schematics that would be a lot of work to convert manually. (my main prob with QUCS is I can’t pdf print[font size issue])
